　　Friendship is a beautiful relationship. While some friendships tend to come to an end as we grow in life， there are some rare and special ones that are meant to last forever. No matter how many years pass by， the connection stays alive.
　　Two childhood best friends who were “joined at the hip” as kids were reunited over a half century later — when they least expected it.
　　Irene Gresty and Janet Henderson were neighbours in the 1940s， growing up in England， but like many friends， they lost touch over the years. After getting married， Gresty moved with her husband who was in the navy and was shipped to many foreign places. However， Gresty， despite living in many countries， loved her own country. Gresty said， “I loved the area where I grew up， so I wanted to settle down to enjoy retirement （退休）.” Thanks to an event hosted by Bield Housing and Care， a non-profit organization devoted to supporting residents over 55 years old， finally they met each other. Gresty said， “We sat down beside each other and she turned to me and said ‘Is that you Irene？’ and I just laughed and said ‘Yes. Are you Janet？’” They couldn’t believe that they were meeting each other after so long. They spent the rest of the afternoon talking to each other.
　　Henderson said that it is usual in life for people to often move away from the area and lose contact. As their family names changed， Henderson couldn’t recognize her friend’s name despite being told about her. The two have promised to never stay long without seeing each other. They exchanged numbers so they could meet in the future. They have many years to catch up on everything they have missed.
1.What does the underlined part “joined at the hip” in Paragraph 2 probably mean？（　?。?br/>A.Grow fast.　　　　 B.Work hard.
C.Hang around.　 D.Stay together.
2.What made Gresty return to England？（　　）
A.Her friends’ invitation. B.Her husband’s new job.
C.Her interest in traveling. D.Her love for her hometown.
3.Which of the following best describes Gresty and Henderson’s reunion？（　?。?br/>A.Unexpected.　 B.Resultless.
C.Long-planned.　 D.Well-organized.
4.What did Gresty and Henderson promise to do next？（　?。?br/>A.Keep in touch. B.Travel abroad.
C.Post their stories. D.Make more friends.

　　When you are a kid， gaining a best friend forever can happen in a single play date. But when you grow up to be an adult， making and maintaining friendships gets harder. So how much quality time （優質時光） do you need before that stranger becomes your friend？ A study recently found that， on average， it takes about 50 hours with someone before you consider them a casual （感情不深的） friend， about 90 hours before you become real friends， and about 200 hours to become close friends.
　　The study’s author Jeffrey Hall， a communications professor， invited adults who are eager to make friends to take part in two experiments — people who had just moved to a new city in the past six months and college freshmen. He asked them to rate and track the degree of closeness and time spent together with a new person. “Results suggest that the chance of changing from casual friend to real friend is greater than 50% after around 80－100 hours together，” said Hall.
　　The study found that the amount of time spent talking together， or the fact that you spent time at school or work with them， was unrelated to friendship closeness. “It is really easy to spend a lot of time with people as they are routinely in the same place at the same time as you，” Hall said. “However， my study shows you can have workmates you spend hundreds and hundreds of hours with and still not develop a friendship.”
　　You do not need to become best friends with your workmates to develop meaningful relationships with them. But for those of us hoping to change from “girl who I eat lunch at work with” to “friend I can depend on”， Hall suggests that you need to take the relationship out of the workplace for it to become a friendship. The participants who did activities outside of work with someone， such as being invited to have lunch in their home， were more likely to develop deeper relationships with them.
5.What is the study mainly about？（　　）
A.Ways of making friends in a new environment.
B.Why people need to make different friends.
C.Different levels of friendship.
D.How long it takes to develop a friendship.
6.What do we know about the participants in the study？（　　）
A.They knew each other before.
B.They had difficulty in making new friends.
C.They were in great need of friends.
D.They started their new life in the same city.
7.What does the underlined word “routinely” in Paragraph 3 probably mean？（　　）
A.Usually.　 B.Actively.
C.Seldom.　 D.Confidently.
8.Which can help people build deeper relationships with workmates according to Hall？（　?。?br/>A.Joining the same work team.
B.Having lunch at work with them.
C.Inviting them to your home after work.
D.Sharing work experience with each other.

　　Hundreds of friends on Facebook can’t replace a handful of close friends in real life， a study has found.In a recent study， researchers discovered that people with only a few friends were at least as happy as those with far more if many of theirs were online.
　　Social media， the researchers said， has encouraged younger people to have larger but more impersonal networks of “friends”.But instead of trying to amass friends， they added， a better cure for loneliness might be spending time with those you’re closest to.
　　Scientists from the University of Leeds did their study using data from two online surveys on 1，496 people by a non-profit research organization.People taking part in the study showed their ages， the make-up of their social networks， how often they had different types of social interactions， and their own feelings of well-being.They included details of how often and how they interacted with families or neighbors， and whether they included people who provided services to them in their networks.
　　The number of close friends someone had appeared to be the only thing which influenced how satisfied they were with their social life.
　　“Loneliness has less to do with the number of friends you have， and more to do with how you feel about your friends，” said Dr W ndi Bruine de Bruin.Actually， it’s often the younger adults who admit to having a bad opinion of their friends.
　　If you feel lonely， it may be more helpful to make a positive connection with a friend than to try and seek out new people to meet.
9.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “amass” in Paragraph 2？（　?。?br/>A.play the role of
B.think highly of
C.take advantage of
D.increase the number of
10.What can be learned from the scientists’ study？（　　）
A.Scientists did one online survey on 1，496 people.
B.People surveyed mentioned new forms of social networks.
C.People surveyed showed their ways to interact with families.
D.The number of friends was the only cause of people’s happiness.
11.What makes people happy in social life？（　?。?br/>A.Living alone. B.Having close friends.
C.Having good appearance. D.Making as many friends as possible.
12.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text？（　　）
A.To advise us to make friends online.
B.To show us the importance of friends.
C.To present us with the findings of a study.
D.To tell us the problems caused by loneliness.
Ⅱ.閱讀七選五
　　People disagree about meaningful and small matters on a daily basis. Sometimes you know if you speak your mind you will upset someone. However， you often must express your opinion even if you know others will disagree. By choosing your words carefully you can avoid long-term offense （冒犯）.
　　·Ask people about their perspective （觀點）. Before being honest about how you feel， it’s important to know their perspective. This gives you a chance to show genuine interest and have a conversation.13.（　?。?They may even end their explanation with a request to hear your perspective.
　　·Put yourself in their shoes. One of the simplest ways to avoid hurting feelings is to imagine how they will respond to your statements.14.（　?。?Practise imagining how they view their own opinion and yours. Just because their perspective is different doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

Ⅰ.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇記敘文。Gresty和Henderson兩人從小是好朋友，由于某種原因，兩人失去了聯系，但是半個世紀后兩人重聚了。
1.D　詞義猜測題。根據畫線短語所在句子可知，半個世紀后兩人重聚了，這說明兩個人在小時候就是朋友，即兩人小時候就待在一起。由此可知，畫線短語joined at the hip意為“待在一起”。
2.D　細節理解題。根據第三段中的Gresty said， “I loved the area where I grew up ...to enjoy retirement （退休）.”可知，Gresty對家鄉的熱愛使她回到英格蘭。
3.A　推理判斷題。根據第三段中的Thanks to an event hosted ...each other after so long.可推知，Gresty和Henderson的重聚是出乎意料的。
4.A　推理判斷題。根據最后一段中的The two have promised ...they have missed.可推知，Gresty和Henderson承諾接下來兩人會保持聯系。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章告訴我們一個成年人需要多長時間才能交到一個新朋友，并且建議要想發展成為朋友需要將這種關系帶出工作場所。
5.D　推理判斷題。根據第一段最后一句及第二段第二句可推知，該研究主要是研究發展一段友誼需要多長時間。
6.C　細節理解題。根據第二段第一句可知，研究者邀請渴望交朋友的成年人參加了兩個實驗。由此可知，這項研究的參與者都是希望交朋友的人。
7.A　詞義猜測題。根據畫線詞后的in the same place at the same time as you可知，作為學生或者同事，在一起很容易的原因是人們經常同時出現在同一個場所。由此可知，畫線詞的意思與usually意義相近。
8.C　細節理解題。根據最后一段最后一句可知，下班之后，邀請同事到你的家里有助于和他們建立更深的關系。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。一項研究發現，親密朋友的數量似乎是影響一個人對社交生活滿意度的唯一因素。
9.D　詞義猜測題。根據畫線詞上文可知，研究人員表示，社交媒體鼓勵年輕人擁有更大但更非個人的“朋友”網絡。But表示轉折，下文研究人員補充說，治療孤獨的更好方法可能是花時間和你最親近的人在一起，而不是試圖增加朋友的數量。由此可知，畫線詞意為“增加數量”。
10.C　細節理解題。根據第三段中的They included details of how often ... who provided services to them in their networks.可知，從研究中可以看出被調查的人和家人之間互動交流的方式。
11.B　細節理解題。根據倒數第三段可知，擁有親密的朋友讓人們在社交生活中感到快樂。
12.C　寫作意圖題。文章第一段指出一項研究發現，接著介紹了這項研究的展開過程和研究結果。由此可推知，作者寫本文的目的是向我們展示一項研究的結果。
Ⅱ.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章告訴我們幾條關于如何在不傷害他人感情的情況下保持誠實的建議。
13.G　空前后兩句說明詢問別人觀點帶來的好處。G項（這也會給你機會說出自己的想法，做到誠實）符合語境。
14.D　根據上文可知，要站在別人的角度考慮問題。避免傷感情的最簡單的方法之一就是想象一下他們會對你的話有何反應。D項（如果他們那樣對你說，你會生氣嗎？）符合語境。
15.C　空處為段落主題句。根據下文making a face和making fun of their ideas可知，C項（控制你的言語和肢體語言）符合語境。
16.B　根據空前一句可知，這種情況不完全是說出你的想法。B項（而是讓他們感到被重視）符合語境。
17.A　根據上下文可知，認為你說的不對是他們的權利，允許他們用自己的方式去發現真相。A項（他們有認為你不對的權利）符合語境。

Absolute agony！
　　Our Agony Aunt answers your questions.
Dear Agony Aunt，
　　I’m in a total mess① here — [1]hope you can help me out②！
　　[1]本句是祈使句。
　　I’m 17， and a member of our school basketball team.I’m crazy about③basketball， and pretty good at④it too， [2]which is probably why I was so mad when we lost our last match.We played well， but I felt the team were let down⑤ by one member， our point guard.The point guard is a key player， but it was like⑥ he wasn’t even on the court⑦！[3]Disappointed by his behaviour， I said all this to my best friend.I was just letting off steam⑧ really， [4]because I was so angry， but then my friend went and told everyone else [5]what I’d said.
　　[2]which 引導非限制性定語從句，補充說明前面的句子；該從句中why引導表語從句，when引導時間狀語從句。
　　[3]過去分詞短語作原因狀語。
　　[4]because 引導原因狀語從句。
　　[5]what引導賓語從句，并在從句中作said的賓語。
　　This is so totally awkward.I’m really angry with⑨ my friend — what should I say to him？And should I say anything at all to my teammate？
　　Embarrassed and ashamed， I can’t concentrate on⑩ anything.Please help！
Ben
Dear Ben，
　　There is an old American saying ，“Loose lips sink ships .” This means [6]that if you speak too much about something， especially to people who you don’t know so well， it’ll cause all kinds of trouble.
　　[6]that引導賓語從句。從句也是主從復合句，其中if引導條件狀語從句；who引導定語從句，修飾先行詞people；it’ll cause all kinds of trouble 是主句。
　　The situation here is so much worse because the “loose lips” were your best friend’s.[7]Treated this way， you’re sure to feel hurt — we should always be able to trust those [8]closest to us， and it hurts even more when we find we can’t.
　　But I have to say [9]that it’s partly your fault ， isn’t it？ You admit that you were “letting off steam”.It is understandable in that situation， but we should always think before we speak.
　　[7]過去分詞短語作原因狀語。
　　[8]形容詞短語作后置定語，修飾those。
　　[9]that 引導賓語從句；isn’t it 為反意疑問句。
　　
[10]Here’s what you need to do.First， apologise to your teammate.If you ever want to win any more basketball games （and I’m sure you do?。?， you need to work together ， and that means communicating with each other clearly and resolving conflicts.So have a chat with your teammate.[11]Tell him directly and honestly that you were talking without thinking.
　　[10]完全倒裝句。what引導的從句是句子的主語。
　　[11]祈使句。that引導賓語從句，作前面Tell的直接賓語。
　　Then， talk to your friend.Friendship should be one of the greatest things in the world， but sometimes it can be difficult.Again，
your strategy is clear communication.Tell your friend you’re angry with him for repeating [12]what you said and [13]making the situation worse， but [14]that you want to move on .[15]Approached in this way， your friendship will soon be repaired.
　　[12]what引導賓語從句，并在從句中作said的賓語。
　　[13]此處為“make＋賓語＋賓語補足語”結構。worse是bad的比較級，此處作賓語補足語。
　　[14]that 引導賓語從句。
　　[15]過去分詞短語作條件狀語。
　　Thirdly， and perhaps most importantly ，think about your own behaviour.Don’t say too much when you’re angry！[16]Filled with anger， you tend to say [17]whatever comes to your mind.This gives people the wrong signal .Take a deep breath ， calm down ， and always remember： think first， speak later.If you feel one of your teammates isn’t pulling their weight ， then raise your concerns in a professional way with your team coach.
　　If you think about other people’s feelings as well as your own， you’ll soon find everything works out .
　　[16]Filled with anger是過去分詞短語作狀語，be filled with意為“充滿著”，作定語或狀語時通常省略be。
　　[17]whatever引導賓語從句，此處不可以改成no matter what。
Good luck！

深陷痛苦！知心阿姨為你答疑解惑
尊敬的知心阿姨：
　　我這兒一團糟，希望您能幫我一把！
　　我今年17歲，是學?；@球隊的一員。我酷愛打籃球，打得也很好，也許正因如此，在我們隊輸掉了最近的比賽時我相當惱怒。我們打得不錯，但我感覺整個團隊都被一個隊友拖累了，那就是我們的控球后衛。控球后衛是隊里的關鍵球員，但他卻好像不在場上似的！我對他的所作所為感到失望，就把這些全部告訴了我最好的朋友。我其實只是想發泄一下怒氣，因為我太生氣了，可我的朋友隨后卻把我的話告訴了所有人。
　　這太讓人難堪了。我對朋友氣惱不已，我應該對他說些什么？另外，我是否應該對我的隊友說點什么？
　　我既尷尬又羞愧，做什么事都無法集中精力。請您幫幫我吧！
本
親愛的本：
　　美國有一句老話：“禍從口出?！币馑际钦f如果你對某件事談論得過多，尤其是跟你不太了解的人談論，會招來各種各樣的麻煩。
　　你的情況更為糟糕，因為“口風不緊”的人是你最好的朋友。被這樣對待，你一定覺得受到了傷害——我們應該一直能夠信賴最親近的人，當我們發現他們不能信賴時，就更傷心了。
　　不過我不得不說你也有一部分責任，不是嗎？你承認了你“只是想發泄一下怒氣”。這在當時的情況下可以理解，但我們在說話前應該先想清楚。
　　現在你應該這么做。第一步，向你的隊友道歉。如果你們以后籃球比賽還想贏球（我肯定你們一定想贏！），你們就必須團結合作，這就意味著你們彼此之間必須溝通清楚，解決矛盾。所以，找你那位隊友聊聊吧，直接誠懇地告訴他你當時的話沒有經過認真考慮。
　　第二步，和你的朋友聊聊吧。友誼應該是世上最好的事物之一了，但有時也會有些麻煩。同樣，你的策略是進行清楚明確的溝通。告訴你的朋友，他傳話的行為讓情況更糟糕了，你對此很生氣，但你想讓事情就此過去。通過這個方式處理，你們的友誼很快就會被修復。
　　第三步，也許是最重要的一點，你要反思自己的行為。生氣的時候不要說太多話！滿腔怒火的時候，你往往想到什么就說什么。這會給別人錯誤的信號。深呼吸，冷靜下來，并時刻記?。合人级笱?。如果你覺得某個隊友沒有盡職盡責，那你要以更專業的方式向教練提出你的擔心。
　　如果你能在考慮自己感受的同時也考慮別人的感受，很快你就會發現情況將逐漸好轉。
祝你好運！

滿腔怒火的時候，你往往想到什么就說什么。

Dear Ben，
　　There is an old American saying ，“Loose lips sink ships .”
This means [6]that if you speak too much about something， especially to
people who you don’t know so well， it’ll cause all kinds of trouble.
　　[6]that引導賓語從句。從句也是主從復合句，其中if引導條件狀
語從句；who引導定語從句，修飾先行詞people；it’ll cause all kinds
of trouble 是主句。
　
⑨be angry with sb 對某人生氣；對某人發火
⑩concentrate on 集中注意力于
saying n.諺語
loose lips sink ships禍從口出
　　The situation here is so much worse because the “loose lips” were
your best friend’s.[7]Treated this way， you’re sure to feel hurt —
we should always be able to trust those [8]closest to us， and it hurts
even more when we find we can’t.
　　But I have to say [9]that it’s partly your fault ， isn’t it？ You
admit that you were “letting off steam”.It is understandable in that
situation， but we should always think before we speak.
　　[7]過去分詞短語作原因狀語。
　　[8]形容詞短語作后置定語，修飾those。
　　[9]that 引導賓語從句；isn’t it 為反意疑問句。
hurt adj.受傷的；受傷害的
be sure to feel hurt 一定會感到很受傷
be sure to 一定會
be able to 能夠
fault n.責任，過錯
admit v.承認
admit doing sth 承認做過某事
understandable adj.可以理解的
　　[10]Here’s what you need to do.First， apologise to your
teammate.If you ever want to win any more basketball games （and I’m
sure you do！）， you need to work together ， and that means
communicating with each other clearly and resolving conflicts.So have a
chat with your teammate.[11]Tell him directly and honestly that you
were talking without thinking.
　　[10]完全倒裝句。what引導的從句是句子的主語。
　　[11]祈使句。that引導賓語從句，作前面Tell的直接賓語。
apologise to sb 向某人道歉
work together一起工作，一起共事
resolve v.解決（問題、困難）
have a chat with sb和某人聊天
directly adv.直接地
honestly adv.誠實地，誠懇地
　　Then， talk to your friend.Friendship should be one of the greatest
things in the world， but sometimes it can be difficult.Again， your
strategy is clear communication.Tell your friend you’re angry with him
for repeating [12]what you said and [13]making the situation worse， but
[14]that you want to move on .[15]Approached in this way， your
friendship will soon be repaired.
　　[12]what引導賓語從句，并在從句中作said的賓語。
　　[13]此處為“make＋賓語＋賓語補足語”結構。worse是bad的比
較級，此處作賓語補足語。
　　[14]that 引導賓語從句。
　　[15]過去分詞短語作條件狀語。
strategy n.計謀，策略；行動計劃
move on 開始做別的事；換話題
approach v.著手處理；接近，靠近
　　Thirdly， and perhaps most importantly ，think about your own
behaviour.Don’t say too much when you’re angry！[16]Filled with
anger， you tend to say [17]whatever comes to your mind.This gives
people the wrong signal .Take a deep breath ， calm down ， and
always remember： think first， speak later.If you feel one of your
teammates isn’t pulling their weight ， then raise your concerns in a
professional way with your team coach.
　　If you think about other people’s feelings as well as your own，
you’ll soon find everything works out .
　　[16]Filled with anger是過去分詞短語作狀語，be filled with意為
“充滿著”，作定語或狀語時通常省略be。
　　[17]whatever引導賓語從句，此處不可以改成no matter what。
Good luck！
Agony Aunt
most importantly 最重要的是
tend to傾向于
signal n.信號；暗號
breath n.一口氣
take a deep breath深吸一口氣
calm down 冷靜下來
pull one’s weight 做好分內事，盡責
concern n.憂慮，擔心 v.涉及；使關心，使擔憂

【參考譯文】
深陷痛苦！知心阿姨為你答疑解惑
尊敬的知心阿姨：
　　我這兒一團糟，希望您能幫我一把！
　　我今年17歲，是學?；@球隊的一員。我酷愛打籃球，打得也很
好，也許正因如此，在我們隊輸掉了最近的比賽時我相當惱怒。我們
打得不錯，但我感覺整個團隊都被一個隊友拖累了，那就是我們的控
球后衛?？厍蚝笮l是隊里的關鍵球員，但他卻好像不在場上似的！我
對他的所作所為感到失望，就把這些全部告訴了我最好的朋友。我其
實只是想發泄一下怒氣，因為我太生氣了，可我的朋友隨后卻把我的
話告訴了所有人。
　　這太讓人難堪了。我對朋友氣惱不已，我應該對他說些什么？另
外，我是否應該對我的隊友說點什么？
　　我既尷尬又羞愧，做什么事都無法集中精力。請您幫幫我吧！
本
親愛的本：
　　美國有一句老話：“禍從口出。”意思是說如果你對某件事談論
得過多，尤其是跟你不太了解的人談論，會招來各種各樣的麻煩。
　　你的情況更為糟糕，因為“口風不緊”的人是你最好的朋友。被
這樣對待，你一定覺得受到了傷害——我們應該一直能夠信賴最親近
的人，當我們發現他們不能信賴時，就更傷心了。
　　不過我不得不說你也有一部分責任，不是嗎？你承認了你“只是
想發泄一下怒氣”。這在當時的情況下可以理解，但我們在說話前應
該先想清楚。
　　現在你應該這么做。第一步，向你的隊友道歉。如果你們以后籃
球比賽還想贏球（我肯定你們一定想贏！），你們就必須團結合作，
這就意味著你們彼此之間必須溝通清楚，解決矛盾。所以，找你那位
隊友聊聊吧，直接誠懇地告訴他你當時的話沒有經過認真考慮。
　　第二步，和你的朋友聊聊吧。友誼應該是世上最好的事物之
一了，但有時也會有些麻煩。同樣，你的策略是進行清楚明確的
溝通。告訴你的朋友，他傳話的行為讓情況更糟糕了，你對此很
生氣，但你想讓事情就此過去。通過這個方式處理，你們的友誼
很快就會被修復。
　　第三步，也許是最重要的一點，你要反思自己的行為。生氣的時
候不要說太多話！滿腔怒火的時候，你往往想到什么就說什么。這會
給別人錯誤的信號。深呼吸，冷靜下來，并時刻記?。合人级笱浴?br/>如果你覺得某個隊友沒有盡職盡責，那你要以更專業的方式向教練提
出你的擔心。
　　如果你能在考慮自己感受的同時也考慮別人的感受，很快你就會
發現情況將逐漸好轉。
祝你好運！

　　Friendship is a beautiful relationship. While some friendships tend to
come to an end as we grow in life， there are some rare and special ones
that are meant to last forever. No matter how many years pass by， the
connection stays alive.
　　Two childhood best friends who were “joined at the hip” as kids
were reunited over a half century later — when they least expected it.
　　Irene Gresty and Janet Henderson were neighbours in the 1940s，
growing up in England， but like many friends， they lost touch over the
years. After getting married， Gresty moved with her husband who was in
the navy and was shipped to many foreign places. However， Gresty，
despite living in many countries， loved her own country. Gresty said，
“I loved the area where I grew up， so I wanted to settle down to enjoy
retirement （退休）.” Thanks to an event hosted by Bield Housing and
Care， a non-profit organization devoted to supporting residents over 55
years old， finally they met each other.
Gresty said， “We sat down beside each other and she turned to me and
said ‘Is that you Irene？’ and I just laughed and said ‘Yes. Are you
Janet？’” They couldn’t believe that they were meeting each other
after so long. They spent the rest of the afternoon talking to each other.
　　Henderson said that it is usual in life for people to often move away
from the area and lose contact. As their family names changed，
Henderson couldn’t recognize her friend’s name despite being told
about her. The two have promised to never stay long without seeing each
other. They exchanged numbers so they could meet in the future. They
have many years to catch up on everything they have missed.

兩人重聚了，這說明兩個人在小時候就是朋友，即兩人小時候就待
在一起。由此可知，畫線短語joined at the hip意為“待在一起”。
2. What made Gresty return to England？（　?。?br/>A. Her friends’ invitation.
B. Her husband’s new job.
C. Her interest in traveling.
D. Her love for her hometown.

area where I grew up ...to enjoy retirement （退休）.”可知，

reunion？（　　）

解析： 　推理判斷題。根據第三段中的Thanks to an event

聚是出乎意料的。

C. Post their stories. D. Make more friends.

　　When you are a kid， gaining a best friend forever can happen in a
single play date. But when you grow up to be an adult， making and
maintaining friendships gets harder. So how much quality time （優質時
光） do you need before that stranger becomes your friend？ A study
recently found that， on average， it takes about 50 hours with someone
before you consider them a casual （感情不深的） friend， about 90
hours before you become real friends， and about 200 hours to become
close friends.
　　The study’s author Jeffrey Hall， a communications professor，
invited adults who are eager to make friends to take part in two
experiments — people who had just moved to a new city in the past six
months and college freshmen. He asked them to rate and track the degree
of closeness and time spent together with a new person. “Results suggest
that the chance of changing from casual friend to real friend is greater than
50％ after around 80－100 hours together，” said Hall.
　　The study found that the amount of time spent talking together， or
the fact that you spent time at school or work with them， was unrelated to
friendship closeness. “It is really easy to spend a lot of time with people
as they are routinely in the same place at the same time as you，” Hall
said. “However， my study shows you can have workmates you spend
hundreds and hundreds of hours with and still not develop a friendship.”
　　You do not need to become best friends with your workmates to
develop meaningful relationships with them. But for those of us hoping to
change from “girl who I eat lunch at work with” to “friend I can
depend on”， Hall suggests that you need to take the relationship out of
the workplace for it to become a friendship. The participants who did
activities outside of work with someone， such as being invited to have
lunch in their home， were more likely to develop deeper relationships
with them.

　　Hundreds of friends on Facebook can’t replace a handful of close
friends in real life， a study has found.In a recent study， researchers
discovered that people with only a few friends were at least as happy as
those with far more if many of theirs were online.
　　Social media， the researchers said， has encouraged younger people
to have larger but more impersonal networks of “friends”.But instead of
trying to amass friends， they added， a better cure for loneliness might
be spending time with those you’re closest to.
　　Scientists from the University of Leeds did their study using data from
two online surveys on 1，496 people by a non-profit research
organization.People taking part in the study showed their ages， the
make-up of their social networks， how often they had different types of
social interactions， and their own feelings of well-being.They included
details of how often and how they interacted with families or neighbors，
and whether they included people who provided services to them in their
networks.
　　The number of close friends someone had appeared to be the only
thing which influenced how satisfied they were with their social life.
　　“Loneliness has less to do with the number of friends you have，
and more to do with how you feel about your friends，” said Dr W ndi
Bruine de Bruin.Actually， it’s often the younger adults who admit to
having a bad opinion of their friends.
　　If you feel lonely， it may be more helpful to make a positive
connection with a friend than to try and seek out new people to meet.

Ⅱ.閱讀七選五
　　People disagree about meaningful and small matters on a daily basis.
Sometimes you know if you speak your mind you will upset someone.
However， you often must express your opinion even if you know others
will disagree. By choosing your words carefully you can avoid long-term
offense （冒犯）.
　　·Ask people about their perspective （觀點）. Before being honest
about how you feel， it’s important to know their perspective. This
gives you a chance to show genuine interest and have a conversation.13.
（　　） They may even end their explanation with a request to hear your
perspective.
　　·Put yourself in their shoes. One of the simplest ways to avoid hurting
feelings is to imagine how they will respond to your statements.14.
（　　） Practise imagining how they view their own opinion and yours.
Just because their perspective is different doesn’t mean it’s wrong.
　　·15.（　　） Be careful with your honesty. You want to speak the
truth in kindness. That means avoiding obvious negative behaviors such as
making a face or making fun of their ideas.
　　·Be polite in your responses. Whenever you try to avoid hurting
others， it is best to speak with kindness. Simple acts of kindness can
make a big difference. They convey respect and show that you value the
other person. This situation isn’t all about you speaking your mind.16.
（　?。?br/>　　·Express your perspective as opinion， not fact. This shows you
value their perspective， even if you know the facts back you up. If they
have an open mind， facts will change their perspective. If they do not
have an open mind， facts will feel like personal attacks.17.（　?。?br/>Allow them to discover the truth in their own way， not yours.
A. They have a right to be incorrect.
B. It’s about them feeling valued.
C. Control your words and body language.
D. If they said that to you， would you be upset？
E. Listening to others’ opinion is a very powerful way.
F. Use facts and try to avoid letting your emotions run high.
G. This may also give you opportunities to speak up and be honest.
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章告訴我們幾條關于如何在不傷
害他人感情的情況下保持誠實的建議。
13. G　空前后兩句說明詢問別人觀點帶來的好處。G項（這也會給你
機會說出自己的想法，做到誠實）符合語境。
語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。文章告訴我們幾條關于如何在不傷
害他人感情的情況下保持誠實的建議。
14. D　根據上文可知，要站在別人的角度考慮問題。避免傷感情的
最簡單的方法之一就是想象一下他們會對你的話有何反應。D項（如
果他們那樣對你說，你會生氣嗎？）符合語境。
15. C　空處為段落主題句。根據下文making a face和making fun of
their ideas可知，C項（控制你的言語和肢體語言）符合語境。
16. B　根據空前一句可知，這種情況不完全是說出你的想法。B項
（而是讓他們感到被重視）符合語境。
17. A　根據上下文可知，認為你說的不對是他們的權利，允許他
們用自己的方式去發現真相。A項（他們有認為你不對的權利）符
合語境。
